August Update

Welcome to the August Update for Marques in the Park 2005.

For some people this is the first report on the event, so I will go through the basic details again, as well as supplying further information.

MARQUES in the PARK is a FREE event, thanks to the great support of:

* SHANNONS

* RYDGES EAGLE HAWK

Event Details:

The third Annual 'Marques in the Park' will again be held at John Knight Park in Belconnen, ACT on

Sunday 20 November 2005.

The day will begin with Breakfast at Rydges Eagle Hawk then a cruise Via Gungahlin to

John Knight Park where you can set up for a great day with other motoring enthusiasts.

In 2004 over 220 Vehicles attended the event, held among plentiful Shade trees and

open grass on the shores of Lake Ginninderra in Belconnen.

This year we have organized:

* Accommodation at Rydges Eagle Hawk, Federal Hwy (if required), starting from $85.00 per room including breakfast. (Ph: 1800 651 543)

This will allow participants to enjoy an organized run to John Knight Park and then set up for a relaxing day of Vehicle spotting.

Facts and details

Rydges Eagle Hawk (Ph: 1800 651 543) is providing an accommodation package for interstate entrants

starting at $85.00 per room including breakfast.

If you are organizing a group booking for breakfast it is recommended that you contact Rydges

before the event and advise of numbers, this will enable Rydges to set up tables to suit.

It's also recommended for small groups and individuals to book with Rydges to assist with numbers on the day.

There is good interest from various groups of motoring enthusiasts from Hot Rodders to Restorers,

Mini Trucks to New Minis and Drag Racers to Street Machines. So on the day there will be plenty to see,

some vehicles you may have seen before and some new clubs and their cars.

If you would like full colour flyers or A3 size event posters, let me know and I will organize them for you.

I can also provide electronic versions of the flyer if required in most formats.

Please tell your clubs and friends about the event and help spread the word.

I haven't put any attachments with this email, if you require a flyer let me know.

* Also Marques is pronounced 'Marks' meaning make or brand, not Marquees which are tents.

Thanks again

    • That’s the one. Yeah, the seller has confirmed the base ECU is from a manual car.    To be honest, I’m only worried about the TCS light being illuminated due to registration here in NL - unsure on rules. Back in Japan, we weren’t allowed to have any permalit error-related lights (or so my shaken guy said).    Looks like this Nistune is the way to go then, appreciate it GTSBoy, and the others that chimed in.   
    • There is no impact. Granted, mine is in an R32, so there are a couple of other things going on, but.... my auto ECU came with the auto engine. Bolted it up to the manual gearbag and suddenly the TCU is just spare parts along for the ride. The ECU doesn't (really) care. Nistune is the fixer of all wrongs. I have no ABS CU or traction control. That would be a recipe for fault codes and permalit check engine light. But....just go into the diagnostics pages and turn them off. Presto, ECU no longer cares that it can't talk to those CUs. If you're worried about the TCS light being lit on the dashboard for some rason (that I am not catching right now), then.... remove the globe. No-one needs the TCS anyway. That is what throttle control is for. I certainly don't have it - haven't missed it in 12-13 years or so. Never wanted it.
    • Thank you Duncan, and I will say, before reading GTSBoy’s response, this was more or less my logic.  I can’t argue with that. The part I couldn’t get past was thinking that the speed sensor in the 30A was replacing whatever was in the AT transmission before, and therefore completing the prior circuit.   The other thing that I failed to mention was that, across all HKS documents, despite mentioning compatibility with AT R34s, there is no mention of a different pin. These Japanese instructions appear to predate early man, so there’s always room for error.    I’m speaking with the seller of this R34 GTT ECU with Nistune at the moment. It’s pretty cheap and eliminates the possibility of me soldering my fingers to the ECU when installing the board myself. I am yet to confirm whether the base ECU is from an MT or AT car, so the question is: When using an MT ECU in an AT car, and then losing the TCU part, are there any other implications?   Another thing I’m not sure of is whether I can pass local regs with a TCS warning. Of course, swapping between ECUs is a fairly simple task.
    • yeah i have done it on my efr8374.. no issues.. sent it to OCD Works in the US.. locally i know hi spool industries do the mod as well
